"Alone I Break" is a song written and recorded by American rock band Korn for their fifth studio album, "Untouchables". It was released to U.S. radio stations as the album's third single in October 2002.

Music and structure

The song is a haunting power ballad that features clean vocals, oddly stylized guitars and synthetic drum beats. In the studio, Munky and Head used custom 14-stringed guitars to create a wide chorus sound.

Concept

Chart performance

The song failed to gain as much airplay as its predecessors, barely cracking the top twenty of "Billboard"'s Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks with a peak of number 19, for the issue date of December 14, 2002.

Live performance

The song was played during a few shows on the promotional Pop Sux! Tour supporting the release of "Untouchables" in 2002, but was quickly scrapped due to difficulties in performing it live.

Music video

MTV supported a contest and a special program entitled "mtvTREATMENT" in which the winner was chosen to direct the video for "Alone I Break." It was shot in the form of a reality TV show where Jonathan Davis kills members of the band.
